Description
Rhododendron, Azalea and other spring flowers blooming in Connie Hansen's garden in Lincoln City. Connie Hansen was an avid gardener but due to old age the garden was neglected during her final years. Several months before her death in 1993, Connie sold, and moved from, her residence at the garden. Few gardens outlast their owners, but the neighbors in the community wanted to preserve the Garden, and the The Connie Hansen Garden Conservancy was created. Generous bequests allowed the Garden to be purchased in 1994 from the real estate investor to whom it had been sold, and today it is maintained by a small group of dedicated volunteers.

Always glad to hear of a garden's being preserved past the lifetime of its creator. Not many are, unfortunately. Lovely shot, Kristina!
